Abstract: | The major chemical components of bauxite deposits of Belgaum (76° 24′E : 15° 54′N) and Yercaud (78° 14′E : 11° 48′N) areas
have been determined. A chemical continuity between parent rocks (zone I) to bauxites (zone IV) via clay (zone II) and laterites
(zone III) clearly indicates that bauxites have been derived byin situ weathering of the respective parent rocks. |
